Just to clarify the “tattoo” in question was temporary body paint applied specifically for that photo which was a promo/LP package image for her LP New Amerykah 2: Return of the Ankh. It was edited for the official flyer circulated in Malaysia but a Malaysian english-language newspaper published an unedited version downloaded from her official fan site.

I am confused about when she had the body art. Did she have it on her then or did someone just pull up a photo fromt he past? I do think an apology was needed considering that every country does not honor nor practice freedom of speech. You have to respect other countries and and there people because that’s why people will continue to respect you.

Well that’s a strong position from a strong woman…wtf! She shouldn’t apologies to anyone, isn’t she a proud convicted soldier of free speech and more generaly freedom, especially in the field of art anymore??

All news is good news , can you imagine how fast the next show will sell out, they WILL see her and more will be at the next one ! This kind of discussion is what is needed to get people talking about real issues; less oppression by governments and perhaps less naivety on behalf of american tourists !! hhee hee Tattoos are for the military parade no?? or branded cattle, i’m personally not a fan of body art and not herded … I love soul music , so lets just listen and stop self harming , that includes alcohol … america is a young country , wise up and travel with your head bowed, is my advice !!!
